A very early Kanemoto School Katana with 2 body test cut

An incredible and precious piece of high quality Japanese history. This work is virtually flawless with a strong Sanbon-sugi hamon, a feature the Kanemoto line was famous for. The nakago is signed in Gold Inlay “Kanemoto” and opposite to it is a cutting test which reads “Honda Dainai-ki Tadatoki Futatsu-do Otoshi” (Honda Dainai-ki Tadatoki cut two bodies at once into the mount). It comes in a very traditional Samruai’s koshirae, one that represented what the Bushi class actually wore day to day. We can highly reccomend this set. Please watch out video in High definition (which you need to select).
